Rezensionen

"If different books have been published in recent years about the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA), the book edited by António Teodoro singles itself out as the first to offer a resolutely polemical look at the evaluation piloted by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) which has gradually established itself as a reference in terms of school comparison. The interest of the critical approach to PISA developed in this work is redoubled by the fact that it refers to work carried out within the framework of an important research project which specifically questioned the "success" of PISA [...]. By approaching PISA from different angles of critical study, the book allows for an in-depth discussion of important questions raised by this assessment, not only at the scientific level, but also at the educational, political and social levels." - Daniel Bart, In Spirale - Journal of research in education
